Snow driving experiences
 
Anyone have any issues with rust, corrosion, or car paint issues using the 370z through the winter snow, salt, sand?

You will need winter tires.
If you have 19 inches you should get 18's and snow tires.
Nissan's paint sucks although the infiniti's supposedly have the self healing paint while the 370z's don't.
Not sure if the 40th came with it though.
Other than that there should be no problems other than the norms.
If you drive in snow and salt you will get rusted bolts aka demon bolts.
Just buy some quality parts and you'll be fine!

Thanks. Snow tires for sure and a good coat of wax before the snow gets here. Frequent undercarriage washes too.

I would recommend just getting a winter beater and letting the Z hibernate over the winter.
